    It sure can. 1 second behind on Hockenheim & Balocco. And at Vairano, the 430S pulls a 1:15.159 & the LP560-4, a 1:15.714.

    Lamborghini has done an amazing job with the LP560-4.

    They'd probably have to rename it to something like Superleggera 580 or 590-4 if they bump the power up. Not a bad idea at all.

    I really hope they bring out a 560-2 (RWD) out sometime as well, if for no other reason than to see some more wrecked Lambo pics. Am I evil for wanting that?

    You have to wonder why they bothered to name it 560-4, if they aren't going to

    Ok, then I'm going to be controversial.

    It's still just an Audi.

    No one on this post could even get close to putting up these numbers in any of these cars anyway, so the differences are irrelevant - they're all really fast.

    So it comes down to personal preferences and I prefer the Ferrari.

    I don't think they'd really need to add any power at all, really. The SL only had 10 extra horses over a normal Gallardo, so if they added all the bits of the Superleggera to the LP560-4, it'd probably be 2-3 seconds faster than the Scuderia without any extra power.

    Oh my. Well, I'm def. not going to even consider wanting one now.
    Please, there's nothing wrong with it having Audi tech. in it, considering Audi is already a well-respected brand itself.

    What does that have to do anything, though? I'm just posting the times the 560-4 has ran on the same tracks as the Scuderia because The_Canuck was wondering if it was as fast.

    Audis are just exepnsive Volkswagens for people who can't appreciate a proper car, I'm sorry.

    Damn it, I said it out loud...

    And the completely messed with the traditional Lamborghini naming system.
